ArtSong 291 Posted September 30, 2012 I can easily drink my 64 ounces of Fluid and get in my 80 g of Protein. Isopure in the glass bottles is how I get the Proteins and 40 ounces of fluid. I feel no discomfort when it comes to eating sugarfree Popsicles sugar free Jell-O sugar-free pudding and I was put on full liquid . I still have gas pain and abdomen pain. I'm starting to worry that maybe I'm doing something wrong or something wasn't done right. My surgery was on September 26 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prettysleeved1 173 Posted September 30, 2012 That's because you aren't taking in anything with real density yet. 2 Wolfgirl1978 and ArtSong reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennyB 25 Posted September 30, 2012 you really don't feel too much restriction until you move to food with more consistency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenfamily004 172 Posted September 30, 2012 Good to know. My sleeve was Sept 12 and I was thinking the same thing... I was beginning to think my sleeve wasn't tight enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArtSong 291 Posted September 30, 2012 Thank you for the information I was starting to think that maybe I had messed it up already lol. It does make sense Ty for the input . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted September 30, 2012 Wow I am 20 days out and still don't get in 64oz and am full often to get in my two shakes. I know everyone is different but don't you feel any restriction or tighness when you consume your liquids? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenfamily004 172 Posted September 30, 2012 I drink about one cup per hour. Milk fills me up but not Water. Don't get me wrong... I'm not hungry but I just thought drinking anything would make my stomach would feel so tight. I do get all 64 oz of fluids in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArtSong 291 Posted September 30, 2012 The Isopure in the Glass bottles hold 40 g of Protein and 20 ounces of Fluid each. So I add 20 ounces extra to that and it doesn't seem to bother me much. it does take me all day to drink it all . My doctor just called to check up on me and finally got cleared to take Gas-X strips and said that I'm doing great when it comes to doing my fluids and protein that way:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lollyfidy1965 402 Posted September 30, 2012 My surgery was June 19th, and I've never had a problem getting in 75-90 ounces of liquid and 75-90 grams of Protein per day...regardless of the stage. Some days it took more effort, because I have no feeling of hunger, but it's been done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mysfun 0 Posted September 30, 2012 I need help with the Protein. I try but I'm so tired of the powders. Help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
my new self 13 Posted September 30, 2012 Wow I was sleeved on 9/27 and I am nowhere close to that. I can only drink a few sips of Protein, Water feels like I am swallowing a solid green been going down, and Jello is almost impossible. Maybe mine is too tight?

Before 50 20 Posted September 30, 2012 I am now on pureed foods and I am finding it hard to get my Water in. I can never finish my supper (1/4 cup pureed chicken, 1/4 cup of carrots). I eat really slow but I get full before I can get my supper down. I am having great weight loss results. When I was just on liquids I always seemed hungry and never really satisfied...but now I get really full from eating very little. It's working! 1 Threetimesacharm reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Before 50 20 Posted September 30, 2012 I also hated Protein Powder so I started drink 'High Protein Boost" and it is really good. I tastes like choc milk shake. Just a thought! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still don't do pudding and I never liked the consistency of the jello. I think that it is good to have restriction, part of it is your tummy is swollen and recovering from surgery. Everyday it gets better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
